    We'd like to send a special thank you to the volunteers from Fortra, who donated 50 kids activity kits and hosted a donation drive on Avivo's behalf that brought in an additional 200 hygiene and household items! This is an incredible donation that'll support not just the adults in our programs but their kids as well. #ThankYou

    We were honored to receive this year's Minnesota Coalition for the Homeless Northern Light Award! Here's what they share about Avivo: "Avivo is an exceptional organization actively championing to eradicate homelessness by tackling housing challenges at various levels from local to expanding statewide, with a unique focus on advocating for racial justice, LGBTQ+ equity, and other marginalized groups. Their commitment to addressing the complex intersectionality of social justice issues sets them apart and makes them a deserving winner of the 2024 Northern Light Award for Inspiring Organizational Leadership. At the heart of Avivo's mission is a deep understanding of the intricate web of factors that contribute to homelessness, going beyond just providing shelter to addressing the root causes of housing insecurity. Avivo demonstrates a holistic approach to tackling homelessness that is both inclusive and effective. Avivo is not only helping to ensure equal access to housing but also fostering a more just and equitable society for all." Watch our own program director David Jeffries accept this award in this clip courtesy of MCH.

    This month's Wish List items give two distinctive ways you can help people in Avivo's programs! 1) Halloween Candy: Help participants in our treatment programs and their children enjoy the festivities of Halloween by donating bags of assorted fun-sized candy! 2) Bicycle Locks, U-Lock style: Help keep the bicycles of Avivo participants safe. For many people Avivo serves, owning a car isn’t an option, but a bicycle allows them the freedom to travel wherever they want or need to go. Help them park their bikes safely by donating new or gently used (with keys) u-lock style bicycle locks. Learn more at https://lnkd.in/d7tzs3D
